    Bregman has some serious reverse splits the last few years. The Red Sox biggest problem last year was actually that our righties couldn't hit righties and our lefties couldn't hit lefties. So he would be a boost in that regard. This "balancing" thing seems to have become yet another rabbit hole LOL
  2. Bellhorn04
    Once again highlighting that our offense could really use another bat.

    Patrick was running for his life. We're used to seeing some of that, but not on every play! And imagine being a 22 year old kid and pick-sixing Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl.

    As far as how Henry feels about the fans, I think he expressed that pretty clearly in his interview in which he talked about fans having unrealistic expectations, thinking their team should win the trophy every year when the odds are really 1 in 30. He doesn't have a lot of regard for our intelligence.

    I think it's a combination of a) trying to be smart running the team and b) trying to maximize return on investment for FSG shareholders. Some would argue that there's nothing smarter than maximizing return.

    Only problem is, that's impossible.
  7. Bellhorn04
    Close enough. My recollection from what Kimmi said is: Best overall hitter 2nd Best or next best OBP 1st Best or next best power hitter 4th Next best power hitter 5th Next best overall hitter 3rd Then of course you have to factor in the L/R stuff.

    We're in a position of trying to reconcile the facts that: a) They are the #3 team in franchise market value and annual gross revenue, according to Forbes 2024 annual Business of Baseball report (and those rankings have been steady for years), and b) As of now they are out of the top ten in team payroll for the third year in a row.

    Agreed, just wouldn't hurt to add a guy like Robertson on a 1 year deal. Hendriks and Whitlock both have the injury ? hanging over them.
  10. Bellhorn04
    Don't think so.

    I know, but the the 2 things are usually close. You generally don't see the lines move very much unless there's a good reason.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, the number three hitter is one of the more intriguing metrics things, because you can see that a lot of managers disregard it.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, there are a lot of hardcore Pollys there and on Sons of Sam as well. The consensus of most projections and Vegas is 84-85.
  15. Bellhorn04
    We're seeing it right now. Not even 3 straight years of .500 and under baseball has motivated them to spend. Obviously the revenues and profits are not being affected in a noticeably damaging way by the mediocre/poor results.
  16. Bellhorn04
    I think Cora would feel unwell even thinking about it.
  17. Bellhorn04
    You'd think missing the playoffs 5 out of the last 6 years would knock some of the arrogance out.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Right. And I'm not saying they should have brought him back. He cashed in, good for him. All I'm saying is the offense needed some help that, as you say, has not been forthcoming.
  19. Bellhorn04
    We're all just speculating. The thing is we're being run by a conglomerate called Fenway Sports Group now. Henry doesn't even own a majority of the shares anymore. It's probably safe to assume there are shareholders who care more about their return on investment than the Sox W-L record.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, Breslow is in a no-win situation. He doesn't want to outright lie but he can't really tell the whole truth, either.
  21. Bellhorn04
    That was just an old-fashioned butt-kicking. Philly's defense was monstrous.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Frighteningly plausible. 9.5.
  23. Bellhorn04
    One thing I would ask Craig is, if he really does have plenty of financial resources available, why is he having so much trouble getting these deals across the finish line, as he puts it?
  24. Bellhorn04
    I've been saying all along, the only thing that can save this offense is the kids.
  25. Bellhorn04
    It is a little amusing to keep hearing that O'Neill is 'no big loss' when he was one of our best hitters last year. Doesn't say much for our other hitters.
